Re: FLASH: target detection

[Cheri Harder]

Actually, you don't even need to stop the drag action to find the

_droptarget, you can get it while it is moving.  Don't know why I didn't

think of that in the first place, Dana.  Sorry to have sent you off on a

wild goose chase.


If (GetProperty ("/mcDrag", _droptarget) EQ "/mcT" )

      Begin Tell Target ("mcSound")

            Go to and Play ("beep")

      End Tell Target

End If


in the two-frame Controller mc will continually check the droptarget of the

mc you're dragging (in my case named mcDrag) and if it is over the scanner

mc (in my case mcT) it will tell the sound clip to beep.
